Babies and sleep. It's easily one of the most discussed and google'd topics for first-time parents. What's the best way to get your baby to sleep? When will my baby sleep through the night? How do you establish a bedtime routine? The list of questions seems endless, especially when you're sleep-deprived. I'll be the very first to admit that ...

Kate Spade Mint Green Gabe Flats
This dress is a repeat---but I wanted to share a quick photo of my new Kate Spade flats! They came in weeks ago but I hadn't worn them until this week. They're a perfect mint green and add a fresh pop of color to any outfit. My right heels does have a blister from the first time I wore them, but this happens to me with plenty of flats. Other than ...
The Pom Pom Scarf
When I posted this selfie of Harper and me on Instagram today, a lot of you asked about my pretty scarf so I thought I'd share my outfit. The scarf was actually a birthday gift from Megan and it couldn't be more me! I absolutely love the colors and the navy blue pom pom trim is the perfect touch that makes it feel special and different. Today I ...
Skincare Haul
Every time I travel to Toronto, I visit my beloved Shopper's Drug Mart to check out all of the skincare. They renovated the stores years ago to include premium skincare and cosmetics brands and I love checking out all of the different lines they carry. Now don't get me wrong, I love Walgreens and CVS, but goodness, there's just something special ...
Vacation Snapshots
I'm writing a quick post to share some of my most loved photos from our trip to Toronto. We really needed a little R&R after our first year as new parents so we're glad we stayed a little longer than we usually do. Plus, I loved the extra time with Harper…though it was tough to drop her of at daycare this morning after spending so much time ...
Family…
Growing up, I was very close to my cousins. We lived down the street from each other and made a lot of childhood memories together. Harper met my cousin, his lovely wife, and my aunt and uncle recently and I loved seeing their reactions in person since they had previously only seen Harper in photos or videos. my mom and Harper before we ...
A Day at the Zoo!
I have visited the Toronto Zoo many times as a child and I was so excited to bring Kevin and Harper there. We were there for about five hours and it was a really great day excursion. Maja, Chad and their little girl Doutzen met us at the zoo and we explored all of the exhibits together. It was the perfect day! By far the highlight of the ...
A Day at the Aquarium
Toronto is such a fantastic city with great attractions and many of our friends recommended we visit the new (or new to us at least) Ripley's Aquarium which is right beside the CN Tower. Harper absolutely loved it! I was a little bit surprised at how outgoing she was at the aquarium since she's been so timid during new social situations and in ...
Birthday BBQ for Harper!
My mom and her husband hosted a birthday BBQ for Harper and we had the best time seeing our friends and many of my mom's friends. The party was really fun and it was special to see some of my closest friends meet my sweet girl for the very first time. Harper is in a phase right now where she has a tougher time warming up to new people ...
My New Summer Beauty Routine with St. Ives®
The one part of my beauty routine that has always been inconsistent is moisturizing my skin. I could never get motivated to do it daily because I hated the feeling of having lotion on my hands and having to wait for it to dry. I knew it was good for my skin so I would get into the habit of moisturizing for a few weeks and then I'd lose ...
